And the compounding coincidences he requires in order to deliver a happy ending are almost disgustingly dishonest. Everything Is Not What It Seems is the theme song to Wizards of Waverly Place, and performed by series star, Selena Gomez. Here, the idiom of the wholesome family film makes no room for the cheap caper-flick stuff Hurwitz wants to sell us. There, though, he was making a Sundance-ready indie with actors who knew their way around the intersection of ironic quirks and real soul-searching. Trevorrow went out on some limbs also in his first feature, Safety Not Guaranteed. Things get even more implausible after this point, but it wasnвЂ™t until a bit of parallel editing involving a middle-school talent show that critics in a Tribeca screening room finally stopped holding their laughter back. If one is still taking things seriously at this point, one might wonder why the about-to-die child didnвЂ™t just commit the felony himself, leaving a note explaining his motives. Then he recorded tapes for her to play as she followed those instructions, walking her through every step of the action -В predicting her wrong turns, answering the questions sheвЂ™ll ask at the very moment they occur to her, praising her for her surprising acumen with a rifle. WeвЂ™re asked to believe that, while his mother slept by his hospital bed, Henry escaped the hospital, went home and wrote all his instructions to her in his journal. It turns out that Henry wants his mother to become a sniper and kill ChristinaвЂ™s stepdad (Dean Norris), following a very specific plan he started making in the days before his illness was discovered. Spoiler-averse readers have moved on, right? Because itвЂ™s impossible to report how stupid things get without being specific. The garden-variety blockbuster lameness of his Jurassic World was one thing after this near-catastrophe, can he really be trusted with the fate of the Jedi? Another group, though, will find acceptance much harder: Those of us whoвЂ™ve allowed ourselves to care about the latest Star Wars trilogy may be made fearful about the prospect of an Episode IX directed by Trevorrow. The preposterousness of Gregg HurwitzвЂ™s screenplay isnвЂ™t enough to throw star Naomi Watts off her game, and the actorвЂ™s sincere performance may suffice to keep a segment of the family-film demographic on board, barely. It begins as a kid-genius family picture, then abruptly becomes a terminal-illness melodrama it winds up a bizarro thriller in which deeply unlikely crimes are plotted from beyond the grave, but not before some child-molestation action pitting a defenseless girl against her stepfather, the commissioner of police.

Complain all you want about Colin TrevorrowвЂ™s The Book of Henry -В one thing you canвЂ™t say is that itвЂ™s not enough movie.
